POPSTerrorist Attack on American Soil Would it surprise anyone that the republicans are behind this? That war machine doesn't know where or how to stop. They inflict false fear everywhere and now this. This is really bugging me. This article is originally entitled... Muslim Children Gassed at Dayton Mosque After "Obsession" DVD Hits Ohio. If you like the movie Obsession, check out The Power of Nightmares. Where did the fear that perpetrated this crime come from? Put down the remote and step away from the TV. While pastors are motivating their flocks to come back to church next week they ought to throw in a message on 1 John 2:6 "the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked."

POPSMerle Haggard has left the Republican Party - Sorry n2
More: The thing that gets under my skin most about George W. is his intention to install fear in people," he said, after walking me down a hallway lined with gold and platinum records "This is America. We're proud. We're not afraid of a bunch of terrorists. W is all about terror alerts and scaring us at airports. We're changing the Constitution out of fear. We spend all our time looking up each other's dresses. Haggard sensed reluctance among the Hillarians to embrace his endorsement—in part, I imagine, because he's not shy about saying that one of the biggest things Hillary has going for her is Bill, who ranks up with Reagan in the Haggard pantheon and not only because the former President used to have a pickup truck with Astroturf in the back. "He cared about this country, about our problems," Haggard said, with a twinkle. "And I figure that whatever she doesn't know, he does." When Al Gore wins the Nobel and Merle Haggard leaves the party, it's a bad day for Republicans.

POPSReligion/Science - Oil/Water No matter what mental rationalization you've thought up the bottom line is that science and religion are at odds with one another. Ask anyone who has waded through the tortured reasoning of theists to reconcile their beliefs with scientific facts knows that believing in talking snakes, burning bushes, Jewish zombies, or virgin births has to forgo reality and enter a world of myth and fairy tales. Ordinarily this could be viewed as simply a character quirk. But unfortunately it has wider reaching consequences. We are dumbing down our children because of irrational belief in a bronze age culture's view of the world. In our society, ignorance is thought charming while intelligence is "elitism". How ass backwards is this?

POPSOrthodox Jewish youths burn New Testaments. What next? Wonder how this went down with the Christian Zionist fundamentalists? Are they in rapture over the burning of the new testaments? So your welcome to boast the Zionist economy but don't bring your bible. So now we have the torture, the concentration camps, the assassinations, the ethnic cleansing, the Gaza prison, the slow starvation, the economic strangulation, the racism, the Arab holocaust to match the Nakba of 60 years ago, and on and on. And all with America's blessing. What next? Burning the Christians?

POPSDengue Fever outbreak hits parts of Asia. Dengue Fever is quickly spread, when rain, and floods, in tropical areas, allow the mosquitoes that carry the virus, to breed in large numbers. Experts are questioning whether global warming is partly to blame, but I wonder what the point is. Shutting the barn door after the horse has bolted. Leading to a conclusion like 'While we have discovered that global warming is partly responsible, we have absolutely no idea what that means, or what we 're going to do about it. If we did know what to do about it, it is very unlikely that we will do anything." Except watch .

POPSResenting the Rich - An Experiment of Envy Apparently, it matters a great deal whether people believe that others deserve their good fortune. If they don't believe they do, then less well-off people will further impoverish themselves to bring the rich bastards down a peg or two. Socialists often claim that capitalism is based on humanity's worst impulses, greed and selfishness, despite the fact that people who live in societies that participate in markets tend to be more generous and cooperative than those who don't. Oswald and Zizzo's research suggests that socialists who believe that their ideology appeals to humanity's better instincts have it backwards. Envy is behind the leveling spirit of socialism. A truly generous and rational soul would wish others well, especially if they have done no one any harm. This is further evidenced by wide support of "soak the rich" platforms of populist politicians.

POPSGlobal Warming Consensus Rejected By Scientists
the world continues to cool. That is leading to increasing scepticism that the call to sacrifice living standards in order to "save the planet" is just political spin designed to persuade the public to accept green taxes." Syun-Ichi Akasofu "There are so many times the Earth was warmer than now, or colder than now. We are not affecting the climate change." Lord Nigel Lawson The consensus is breaking down because no matter how much the global warming agenda-setters may want us to be, people are not sheep, to be led around and told what to think and what to say. You can only lie to us for so long before the truth exposes your movement for what it is; a dogma based on faulty science and ulterior motives. We've heard prediction after prediction after prediction about how the polar ice caps were absolutely inevitably going to melt away into nothingness this summer. Of course, they haven't. Not even close. You'd think that would put some humility into these Chicken Littles.

POPSTree trade could save planet from global warming If this finding is true, I would pay significant money (voluntary tax?) that would pay people and / or countries not to cut down their forests, as well as to restore and regenerate what they have cut down. If every comfortable middle class family in the world paid $1000 a year into a fund to save the forests, at LOT of money could be generated. And we could then fly to our heart's content ... except that rising fuel costs are going to put air travel out of financial reach for most people. It's a double bonus for the environment, though.

POPSFive ways of making your car more fuel efficient! # Because of this, you should check your tire pressure on a regular basis. # Start driving as soon as the engine starts. This might seem obvious but some people leave the car idling for some time before driving. But this is totally unnecessary.
